Step 6Drill holes for servo wires

Drill holes for servo wires
Temporarily places your servos in their mounting position behind the servo / IR mount and you will notice that the wires hit the mount on the back side. We will need some holes to allow the wires to pass through. Servos must be oriented so that the output shafts are closer to the front of the base, not the rear.

Using a servo as a guide, determine and mark where the holes need to be drilled on the mount.

Using your pencil and ruler, transfer those points to the front of the mount as shown in step 4.

Drill holes with a 5/16 drill bit. Be careful, you can split the wood. Never fear, if you do just super glue it together.

OPTIONALLY you can reroute the servo wires through a small hole drilled in the bottom of the servo during modification and avoid this step alltogether.
